Produce your own clean energy, all while saving money with net metering, incentives, and batteries! Pennsylvania has a goal for solar power to make up 10% of total power generation, so you can be certain there is a bright future for solar energy in the state.

Pennsylvania offers two main state-level incentives to go solar. First, net metering allows solar-equipped homes to sell excess electricity they generate back to the power grid, as well as bank excess power for future use. Net metering is available for all eligible customers of investor-owner utilities. Pennsylvania is also one of the states that offers Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SRECs). SRECs are credits that solar homeowners can sell to local utilities, without a fixed ceiling. Both of these incentives make going solar in Pennsylvania even more financially appealing. 

Pennsylvania homeowners are also eligible for the Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC).*** The ITC allows you to deduct 26 percent of the cost of installing a solar energy system from your federal taxes.
